Max Vernon - Diamond Dust

Back

new song just finished writing a couple days ago. I was listening to a lot of klezmer when I first started writing it, and it kind of worked its way into the song. You can hear more music @ my myspace: www.myspace.com/maxvernon here are the lyrics: Sick of waiting for the stars above to realign I didn't come this far just to be brushed aside But the deck is stacked- I know, I bought the guide I've become a captive of my own design Twist and tear me like taffy, try to break me down So you can mold and shape me with your battered crown See the diamond dust fall, feather down Hear applause in your fantasy surround sound Creepin round your cardboard cave Swear you're thinkin bout me everday Will I pay the price of rolling with a gambling man's advice? I am not mine; collarbound and hypnotized I'll f-f-fetch your bone and drop it at your feet. I'm your project; silent and obedient I'm j-j-just a piece of property. Will you swear on the bible to tell the truth Duck and dive with their eyes burning into you All the while fake a smile for the jury who Are gonna watch your plastic thrown melt under you When your heart drowned deep in the frozen lake Took a sip of your Vicodin lemonade But the scars of the past, they never fade away Until you dip your toes into your liquid grave I don't understand- why waste time you know you're already damned? Feel the temperature rise. In the boiling blood you will capsize. I am divine; martyred and then canonized I'll t-t-turn your water into golden mead I'm the prophet; cosmic and omnipotent So I d-d-d-d-d-d-don't need your charity I'm sorry I can't pretend You climbed a stalk to find a golden hen but I'm just a man Pressing pain into future vinyl Hands in wet cement will never be more permanent than the blink of an eye; a piece of shell in an ocean tide. Cause the world won't hold its breath to watch you die. And you'll die alone.
